Year 10 History - World War II Museum Displays

In Term 2, Year 10 History has focused on the Australian experience in World War II. 

 

Students worked individually on a project creating a World War II museum in their classroom. Each student was allocated a topic ranging from Australians involved in theatres of war such as North Africa, Europe and the Pacific, to the Australian experience on the homefront such as the Japanese attack on Sydney Harbour and rationing. Students also examined the experience of Australian POWs under the Germans and Japanese. 

Students were given the option to use whichever medium they wished, from cardboard posters to models and digital presentations. Each Year 10 class did a tour of their class' exhibition and filled out a worksheet detailing the information they gained from other displays.
